A.M. Felt fresher this morning so dropping the 2nd run last night was a good call. Also I was encouraged by two things, I stretched my quad before running and there was no pain, and it was dry for the first time in ages. Trail run with 2 longer hill sprints, still going cautious on the steeper downhills. Finished with some strides, called it a day after the 6th when my quad started to ache a little. Feel a lot happier though. Total 19,4k in 1:27:13, av pace 4:30/k, 7:14/mi. P.M. Couldn't persuade my wife to join me for a short evening run, shortly after I set off the heavens opened and I got drenched. Sensible foresight ah. Recovery jog for 6,5k in 33:36, av pace 5:10/k, 8:19/mi. |
